Hi All newbie here.
I have had the original band since launch and have pre ordered the Band 2 as am now a huge fan.
I watched the Microsoft event and was somewhat impressed with the new band but was left stumped as to why the band was not NFC enabled or have I missed something?
At this point with everyone and everything going NFC payment the band not having NFC seems a monumental error/oversight and something they should definitely look to fit to the next band. Being Android iOS and Windows enabled it would make the band that much more of a competitor to the other smart watches out there not least based on price.
Apple iWatch at ?300+ starting point versus a microsoft band at ?200 but able to use apple pay would be a definite winner.
Anyone think the new band may be missing any other tricks.
